Particular attention will be paid to ensuring the right to life and the prohibition of torture and inhuman or degrading treatment, as guaranteed by Articles 2 and 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights.

Professional discussions and exchange of experience planned during the visit are aimed at developing the professional competencies of prosecutors, improving legal practice in line with international standards, and strengthening cooperation between domestic and international partners for the effective enforcement of ECHR decisions.
